I've been a great admirer of Benny's work- during... the ABBA day's and after. His distinctive style has evolved into Folk, Jazz, Dance, Film scores, Musicals and much more than Rock/Pop !. This album is near the best he's ever produced to date !. If you admire & love Benny's music, buy a copy - you won't be disappointed with this masterpiece. A Classic !. Stuart T

Well, Benny Andersson is certainly well accomplished a...s a classical pianist, and this CD is really aimed at those who love classical piano music. Unfortunately, I didn't look into it enough and mistakenly thought it to be some kind of re-worked piano version of ABBA's greatest hits. Well, you do get 'Thankyou for the Music', which is excellent, but everything else is 'classical' composition in the true sense of the word. Never mind, it is after all quite soothing.

I was looking forward to receiving this but disappointed when I... heard a few tracks. I play too so appreciate fine music, I thought that I could play this better. Having played through a few times I now think it a wonderful easy listening album that has got better with time. I maybe able to play the tracks but I am no writer and I now to the master. Finding out that Benn neither reads or writes music was a shock but neither can Paul McCartney and he has done quite well.

The quality is good but i was very disappointed in the ...choice of material. I wanted to hear instrumental version of The Winner takes it all and other better known Abba tunes. I appreciate the wonderful talent but the only tune I knew was 'Thank you for the music' (which I love) so overall very disappointed although it is still a first class product.

The wonderful Benny Anderson alone with a piano, pure un...adulterated gentle entertainment. A joy from start to end and ideal as a quality time background track. Thank you for the Music sends shivers down the spine in the best way possible, leaving every hair on your body stood up. Thank You for the Music Mr Andersson, Thank You.
